I didnt pay for the first year as it was free when i got the car.....
Right Dixons Vauxhall want....
£85 for 1 year
£105 for 2 Years (or £15 deposit and 11 payments or £13.38 = £165 (10%charge))
She said its not just breakdown cover its the maximum thing... home start etc....

you do but doesnt cover everything in years two and three. Must be three miles from home blah blah.
For the extra money it gives you maximum AA coverage. Covers you and any car you are in, and sureguared gurantee and mot insurance

Chewy - I wasnt given 3years free they only gave me 1..... dont know what thats about.
So will i still get a year free when i have my first service?? or do I need to review now like the lady said on the phone??
Also is the first service due from when i bought the car or when it was registered??
Reason i ask it that i bought it in june but it was pre-registered in march last year.

if they serviced it when you got it then it's one year from that date if not it's one year from registration.yeap you get another year free breakdown cover when you have it serviced you don't get all 3 years at once.just to make sure you take it to them i guess

chewy rang dixons..... they want £124.80 and that includes another years breakdown cover free. and it need servicing now (year from when born)
I had a right go at them saying "why did someone ring this morning asking for £85 to extend cover when i am now getting it free with a service are you trying to rip me off or something?"
